Palacio de Nava, 16th-century mansion in San Cristóbal de La Laguna, Spain

The Palacio de Nava presents a rectangular structure with two interior courtyards, featuring a symmetrical stone facade with five openings on each of its two floors.

Construction of the palace began in 1585 on land owned by Jorge Grimón, and the building underwent substantial modifications in the 17th century with a complete renovation in 1776.

The palace exhibits a combination of architectural styles, including Mudejar craftsmanship and Portuguese influences, particularly visible in its octagonal coffered ceiling and ornate details.

Located at the northwest corner of Plaza del Adelantado, the palace maintains protected status as a Cultural Heritage Asset and requires preservation due to its endangered status.

The main courtyard features basaltic stone columns with decorative plinths, leading to a marble staircase that displays intricate Corinthian capitals and zoomorphic gargoyles.
